Physics requirements in Earth and Earth/GEOG

Rational: Some students take PHYS110 and then "drop down" to PHYS102B. These students are then unable to register for PHYS102A since they completed PHYS110. SEOS was consulted (information from that discussion provided on next slide) and wants to drop PHYS102A. Since Earth/GEOG has the same issue, we would like to make the same change in this program if GEOG agrees. Proposed change to first year requirements:
